What flowers are suitable for planting in tall flower pots

Reasons for not being able to fill with soil

It consumes too much soil. To fill such a large pot with soil, it definitely does not take a little bit, but a lot. And as you water it, even more soil will collapse. For those who live in balconies, soil is very precious.

It is not airtight and easy to accumulate water. The most common reason for the death of potted plants is water accumulation due to excessive watering. For such a deep pot, the bottom may not dry out for several months after watering once, and people often water it involuntarily, which leads to water accumulation and the death of the plants.

What flowers are suitable for planting

This kind of tall flowerpot is very beautiful for planting some woody plants, such as money tree, lucky tree, umbrella-leafed umbrella and other woody foliage plants. If you use a small pot, it will appear uncoordinated and unsightly, but using this kind of tall flowerpot, it will look very beautiful.

How to plant flowers

No matter what flowers you plant, the most ideal way is to use them as pots inside each other, that is, to put a small pot inside a large pot. Doing so not only uses less soil, but also increases the air permeability of the soil and makes it less likely to accumulate water.

Of course, some vendors put a lot of small flower pots or even foam under this kind of flower pot in order to save soil, but they don’t tell flower lovers, which ultimately leads to poor plant growth.

Simply put, when planting flowers in tall flower pots, it is best to put something breathable and water-permeable at the bottom, or even a whole piece of coal (soaked in water).

The amount of padding can be determined according to the plants you are raising. If it is a large plant with a well-developed root system, less padding or no padding is required. If the root system is not well-developed, such as the money tree, more padding is needed, and so on!
